Eloise
French and English variation of Heloise
"healthy; wide"
Well balanced between sleek, sweet, strong, and vintage, newly chic Eloise re-entered the US Top 1000 in 2009, following a 50-year absence. In 2022, it broke into the Top 100 in the US and across the…
Paul
Latin
"small"
Paul is an ancient name for boys -- popular in Roman and medieval times -- that's not very fashionable now, which can work in its favor, scarcity balancing simplicity. To the thousands of girls who…

Sigrid
Norse

Anaïs
Blanka
Czech, Slovak, Polish, Hungarian, Croatian, and Slovene form of Blanche, French
"white, fair-skinned"
A Top 50 choice in Poland and Hungary, but familiar in the Czech Republic and the UK, Blanka is a bright and spiky form of the French Blanche. Derived from the word blanc meaning "white, fair", it…
Gerda
Scandinavian, Norse, German, Dutch
